Kolkata opened the bid for Cummins before the new franchise, Gujarat Titans swooped in. The price kept rising as both the franchises were eager to have the Australian bowler in their ranks.
As the price went up to Rs 5.75 crore, Gujarat conceded defeat but another new franchise, Lucknow Super Giants, gave it up. They started bidding and the price of Pat went up to over INR 7 Crore.
Eventually Lucknow also once again left Pat Cummins leaving Kolkata. The Australian Test captain thanked the franchise for reintroducing him in a video posted by KKR.
“Absolutely excited to be back with Kolkata. Thanks to Venky, Baaz (Brendon McCullum), Shah Rukh (Shah Rukh Khan), the entire team. Just absolutely pumped and so excited.
The season can’t come soon enough. Thank you for making me a part of Galaxy of Knights for the upcoming season. Can’t wait, cheers! Cummins said.
